Description
This text includes occupation-based case studies that highlight the didactic material presented in each chapter, along with an updated style of information. Four sections make up the text. The first section looks at important foundation concepts such as history, uniform technology, and the occupational therapy process. The second section introduces students to people who are experiencing the challenges of disabilities. The chapters provide general information about the disabilities, as well as essential vocabulary and key concepts. The third section provides information on the "doing" of occupational therapy. Foundation treatment techniques are introduced so students can master basic skills and continue to research current practice. Lastly, the fourth section focuses on the management aspects of an OTA's professional life. This text seeks to provide students with the foundation they need to practice sound and meaningful occupational therapy.
